Sports,

Could you add this car to the list of donated items?

Drop me a pm with the address I need to send it to and I'll have it in the mail when I return home, next week.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all those that lost a loved one. I spent 12 years working wildfire and worked many a fire in many States here, but thankfully didn't have to endure the hell that must be happening now.

Bidding is at an awesome $860.00 at the moment, and i have a feeling it is going to start going up in engine capacity levels.......

What better way to get an awesome amount of mini models, two amazing posters, a $250 mini king voucher, and donate to a great cause, all tax deductable!!!!
